Please search your parts bins for a MW 2145 lower fourth slide assembly. They are no longer available from the factory and the next course of action is to have one made, which won't be exactly inexpensive. If one is located, please DM me here or email at chite AT buddyrogers DOT com.

Many thanks!

Just announced!! Scott Sutherland will be joining us at Willis Music's Union Centre location on Oct 8 as part of our Artist Series events. The afternoon begins at 3pm with by appointment mouthpiece and instrument fittings (details to follow) then at 6:30, Scott performs "YouTube: Live On Stage ...

We received two large and two medium bags in at Willis and I quickly did a fit check with a few models. The medium bag fits the Eastman 836, 834, 622/534, and Yamaha 623 CC. The large bag is definitely suited to the Eastman 825, GR55, and similar tall models. It resembles a Goetz Supersac and adds ...

Willis Music/Buddy Roger's Music is the US dealer for Schlipf mutes but getting new stock from Herr Schlipfinger has been cost prohibitive. I am actively searching for an efficient method by which to ship stock that doesn't double the cost of the product. Please be patient with us and if we're able ...

Bloke has (re)posted this, as have others, but the inner and outer slide tubes must be clean and aligned to operated smoothly. A slide oil of appropriate viscosity will provide the action you're seeking. I've been using La Tromba T1+(thickest) valve oil on my first slide and using either Yamaha or ...

The RT-88S is indeed still offered as is the Sousapower 8, the latter being a variant of the 88+ with a small shank.


You could try the 88-S, if still offered. That’s what I used with my standard shank tuba.

I believe, in PT/RT terms, the “S” designates standard American, whereas their regular ...

Bob would obviously the best arbiter of that info but I would agree that my PT models have what appear to be Tilz-style markings. My early Rudolf Meinl RM-10 was made by Tilz but a later version by Josef Klier.

Bob owns the trademark for "Perantucci" and "PT" for Europe/Asia and continues to manufacture and market mouthpieces for them. Mouthpiece models sold in the US wear the "Robert Tucci RT-##" markings. They are the very same mouthpieces, produced at the same time, just marked according to the market ...

The tubas from Lidl are a joy to play. We have two rotary F tubas in stock, one with the fifth rotor in the "typical" location before the first valve, and the second, with the fifth located after the fourth. One has a gold brass bell and the other sports all yellow brass construction and a nickel ...

I have two in stock at $269 shipped (within US). I'm not sure that I will be able to sustain this line as shipping from Europe has been cost prohibitive. What I have may be the last ones available unless we're able to find a solution.

Two new Cronkhite bags in stock, black and blue. Please let me know if you're interested.

I'll be in the shop the week of the 22nd if your schedule allows. We're just above the I275 loop off I75.

Willis Music is the North American distributor for Lidl brass instruments, with some help still from Lee Stofer.

Most of our recent models came stock with the second slide trigger. A couple did not but they could be easily ordered that way. I am also nearly out of BBb models and will be placing a ...

We do have one remaining LBB-701 in stock. Please let me know if you need more info.

The EBB-623 has been around for some time but was overshadowed by the -562, then -825/825V.

If you liked the GR-51 better than the Miraphone 191, then the 562 or 825 would most likely be your preference. Ergonomics are quite different on each model.

I realize you're probably looking for a used model, but I have a new Willson-branded Bonna case in blue leather. If interested, please contact me.

Unfortunately, I will not be there this year due to a previously scheduled commitment. Wish I could go.

Lots of experience with MTS as a dealer and end user. I'm a big fan of the company and their products. I've been to the factory and have seen first hand the lengths they go to ensure a top quality case is produced. Communication is second to none and parts support is superb. An MTS case will be a ...

I realize you're probably searching for a used model but we have a new 642IIS Neo in stock and shipping is free. Please let me know if you're interested.
